I said:

As he said: abrogated.

15 - And from Al-Bara'ah:

the verse of the command to mobilize lightly and heavily:

His statement - the Most High -: {Mobilize lightly and heavily}

The verse.

Abrogated by the verses of excuse,

and it is His statement - the Most High -:

{There is upon the blind no restriction}

The verse.

And His statement - the Most High -:

{There is upon the weak}

the two verses.

I said: lightly, meaning with the least of what is sufficient for jihad of a mount, a slave for service, and provision he is content with.

And heavily: with much service and much mount, so there is no abrogation, or we say: abrogation is not certain.

16 - And from Surah Al-Nur:

the verse disapproving marriage to the adulteress:

His statement - the Most High -: {The adulterer does not marry except an adulteress}

The verse, abrogated by His statement - the Most High -: {And marry the unmarried among you}

I said: Ahmad [upheld] the apparent meaning of the verse, and its meaning according to others is:

that the perpetrator is not a match except for the adulteress, or choosing the adulteress is not recommended,

and His statement - the Most High - {And has been forbidden that}

is an indication to adultery and polytheism, so there is no abrogation. And as for His statement - the Most High - {And marry the unmarried}

it is general and does not abrogate the specific.
